Transmission Operation

Transmission, 02E, 6 Speed Direct Shift A/T
"Direct Shift Automatic Transmission 02E" is also called a double-clutch transmission. Engine torque is transferred to transmission via the dual-mass flywheel. Transmission is constructed like a 6-speed manual transmission. Alternating hydraulic actuation of the two wet multi-plate clutches permits operation similar to that of an automatic transmission, i.e. the gears are engaged automatically or manually via the Tiptronic mode. A clutch pedal is not installed.
